First Gospel Concert At Loretta Lynn Ranch A Huge Success

Hurricane Mills, TN (October 2, 2013) It was a first at the Loretta Lynn Ranch. There has been a lot of great Country Music to come from the open air pavilion, but the weekend of September 28 and 29, 2013 was the very first all Gospel program presented at the Ranch. Promoter and Director of the event, Jeff Sneed (The Sneed Family), worked tirelessly and successfully to present two flawless days of Gospel Music. The event was a complete sell out with many bringing their own chair and sitting on the lawn when the reserved seats sold out.
They came from all across the country and from every denomination to enjoy the best Gospel Music ever heard. With such headliner artists as Karen Peck and New River, Brian Free and Assurance, The Hoppers and The Freemans on Saturday, and headliners The Isaacs and Gold City Quartet on Sunday afternoon this event could not help but be extremely successful. When you add to that Loretta Lynn herself making an appearance not a sole in the audience left disappointed.
Host group, The Sneed Family, brought the crowd to their feet with their spirited singing. Jeff Sneed, who was the Promoter and Director of the event stated “The Loretta Lynn Gospel Music Festival had to be one of the most memorable events that I have ever been a part of. The fellowship and love that was felt took me back to the days of an "All Day Sing and Dinner on the Ground" when God and Family were first in peoples life. And I must say, there were no disappointments in meeting this sweet legend in Country Music. Not only was it exciting to hear her perform her hits but having the privilege to escort this Legend to the stage and stand and sing with her will forever be a precious memory in my mind. Looking forward to the Festival Next year and we will be releasing details in a few weeks.”
The word around the backstage of the concert was that this event was one of the most organized and best managed of any the artists have participated in. When you add to all the performers the fact that the event was emceed by Mark Lowry, who also performed and kept the audience laughing. A very special treat for the attendees was when Buck Rambo joined his family, Rambo/McGuire, onstage to sing a few old Dottie Rambo classics.
As soon as the dates are set in stone and the line-up of artists are selected the news will be blasted to you.

LORETTA LYNN RANCH ANNOUNCES TRAIL RIDE POSTPONEMENT

Nashville, TN – Recent occurrences at the Loretta Lynn Ranch in Hurricane Mills, TN – including storm damage and a fire in the commercial kitchen – have forced organizers to postpone the popular Loretta Lynn’s Bi-Annual Trail Ride that was set for September 2-7, 2013.

The trails are currently “under construction” and ranch workers are concerned with the safety of the beloved guests and campers. “I hate to cancel this ride,” said Loretta Lynn. “This is one of my favorite things we do at the ranch but Mother Nature sure dealt us a big blow with the recent storm and then we had the fire and it really set us back. We are trying to make sure everyone is safe and that's our main concern. We sure hope to have everything back in order soon for more trail rides. I've been putting on the big organized trail rides for 30 years now and I ain't about to stop ... we just need a little more time.”

All other events at the Loretta Lynn Ranch - including the weekend Wrangler camp - will proceed as scheduled. Guests may inquire by calling 931-293-7700. Organizers will announce a new trail ride date as soon as possible.

Country Music sensation Kacey Musgraves is the next guest artist to perform at the ranch on August 30. Musgraves Mercy Nashville debut album, Same Trailer Different Park, was released on March 19 and hit the No. 1 position on the Billboard Country Chart and No. 2 on the Billboard Top 200 Chart. It’s evident that critics and fans alike have fallen in love with the voice of Kacey Musgraves and that voice will ring through the hills when steps onto the historic stage of the Loretta Lynn Ranch.

SHERRY DAMRON RELEASES WRITING COLLABORATION WITH LEGENDARY LORETTA LYNN.

Sherry Damron of Vadalia, GA has just released “You Ain’t Devil Enough” on iTunes. The song is a rewrite of Loretta Lynn’s “You Ain’t Woman Enough”.

Sherry says: “I have always loved Loretta Lynn & grew up hearing her music. I was sitting at the piano one day and began to play “You Ain’t Devil Enough To Change God’s Plans”. I wrote the chorus in about five minutes and within 30 minutes I had re-written the whole song.

I purchased the original soundtrack & sang the song at a Conference & the response was overwhelming. I wanted to record it but knew I needed permission so I sent a very rough copy to Ms. Lynn’s office and within a few weeks I received a call saying that Ms. Lynn liked the song. I was given a single song agreement by Ms. Lynn and Sure Fire Recording with her blessing to record the song.

"It is proof that in fact, the devil cannot change the plan & purpose of God on anyone’s life, if that individual will give their life, messed up and all, into God’s capable & strong hands. Our God’s thoughts toward us are that of good and to bring us to an expected future. I hope everyone will enjoy the song and that it will minister to many!”

Sherry, her husband and their son are preaching the gospel in churches and arenas nationwide as well as abroad. They have a TV program “I STILL BELIEVE” which is airing four times weekly. Dwayne and Sherry pastor “The Sanctuary” in Vidalia, Georgia and have also established an extension of the ministry in Pakistan.

“You Ain’t Devil Enough” will be released to gospel radio during the month of August.
